Review:
The Ohio Expo Center and State Fair became the permanent home for the Ohio State Fair in 1886 when over 100 acres of land were acquisitioned for the site. Since 1886, the Ohio Expo Center and State Fair grounds have added over one million square feet of event space, making it the most dynamic venue in the Midwest. It is home to over twenty unique historic buildings, pavilions, modern livestock facilities, and multi-purpose buildings.
It also has basketball courts, an ice rink, and a 10,000-seat arena. For tourists who want to see the grounds in action, it holds five well-known Columbus events, including The Goodguys Rod and Custom Car Show, the Equine Affaire, and the All-American Quarter Horse Congress as well as the Beef, Turkey, and Deer Expo.
